nChapter 96

"Besides, when I said let nature take its course, I meant it for everyone . No more matrimony discussions, please .
" Davis said with a polite tone .
nDavis and Shirley looked at each other and smiled . One felt that the other was amusing, while the other felt that the other one was domineering .
n
"Princess Shirley, let me introduce you to my wife, Evelynn Cauldon,
" Davis said as he waved his hands to a direction .
nWind converged as it pushed the people aside, revealing a certain ravishing figure .
nEvelynn froze there, stunned by his introduction .
nJust when she had gathered the courage to step in and talk to Davis, she was caught off-guard by his speech .
nDavis smiled, how could he not notice her approaching him hesitantly? He even used this opportunity to shamelessly and indirectly express his desire for her .
nClamour erupted in the arena as the whole crowd's attention was on Evelynn . Gazes of envy, jealousy, greed, and lust were gathered on her .
nEvelynn felt incredibly awkward on having the whole crowd's attention to her .
nShirley glanced at the voluptuous figure in front of her and admired those twin peaks,
"Hmm, not bad!
"
n
"I know right?
" Davis laughed .
nEvelynn blushed hard . Her face turned bright red as she thought, 'Scoundrel! Why is he teasing me in front of everyone!?'
n
"Aren't you happy that you managed to keep him for yourself, Miss Evelynn?
" Shirley asked, testing the waters .
n
"I . . . I d-don't know .
" Evelynn replied nervously, her voice meek .
n
"Hmm? What was that? I couldn't hear you?
" Shirley placed her palm beside her ears .
nEvelynn increased her voice as she shut her eyes,
"I . . . just don't know!
"
n
"That decides it! Prince Davis, she clearly likes you and possibly is in love with you . I don't know how you managed to do that, but congratulations!
"
nDavis was stunned,
"How . . . What makes you say that!?
"
nEvelynn was also stunned as her thoughts were revealed . All she wanted to do was find her resolve and convey it to Davis . But questioned by Shirley and teased by Davis, she nearly forgot what she came here for .
nShirley grinned,
"Heh! I'm the thirty-sixth Princess of the Ashton Empire and I have some sisters who are married to their love . The kind of reaction she gives, it is clear that she likes you, Prince Davis .
"
nDavis was utterly dumbfounded . All he heard was 'I don't know' and from that, she was able to garner a lot of information?
n'What the actual **? Women are scary!' Davis gulped as he thought, but his gaze unconsciously turned affectionate while looking at Evelynn .
n
"Our Royal Father dotes on us a lot . Even though he is greedy, he is truly a good father and an emperor . Otherwise, he wouldn't let me off this easily .
" Shirley smiled and said .
n
"You were born to a good family!
" Davis nodded his head, quite happy for her .
n
"Isn't your family the same?
" She asked as she grinned .
n
"Yes, though that wouldn't be the case if the rebellion didn't happen
" Davis smirked .
n
"Haha, aren't you straightforward?! Just the way I like it!
" She laughed out loud . Then sighed,
"A pity, you are way out of my league .
"
nDavis fell silent, if she felt like that then he couldn't do anything about it . She wasn't his responsibility anyway and towards her, all he felt was a friendship kind of feeling, like the one he had with Ellia .
n
"Don't you feel the same, Miss Evelynn?
"
nSuddenly Evelynn's demeanour changed as she replied,
"Feel the same? I have been stabbed by this feeling from the moment I saw him .
"
n
n
nSince her feelings had been found out, she felt that there was no use to being shy anymore . She felt that she should be bolder .
n
"So your decision to love him was after that?
" Shirley asked as he pointed at Davis .
nEvelynn hurriedly denied,
"After that? No! Initially, I was just like you and someway, perhaps, at some point, I started thinking about him .
"
nShirley giggled,
"Even though he is still a kid?
"
nEvelynn was amused, she then chuckled,
"He certainly doesn't act like one . . .
"
n
"Well, that's true .
" Shirley looked at the two corpses near her .
n
"By the way, you have my gratitude for killing that bastard . He was just way too much!
" Shirley thanked Davis as she felt that the humiliation she received earlier was avenged by him .
nDavis smiled,
"No problem .
"
n
"Then, I'll take my leave . Goodbye Prince Davis, Miss Evelynn .
" Shirley clasped her hands and walked away .
nJust as she walked, she suddenly stopped and turned back,
"Goodbye . . . Ellia, was it?
"
nEllia who was silent the entire time was astonished .
"Princess is acknowledging me?
" She asked in incredulity .
nShirley giggled,
"Well you could say that . Your friend here has made me understand that there are always powerful people above you and it is not good to act arrogant all the time .
"
nShirley, Ellia and Evelynn once again turned to look at those two corpses of the emperors who were just alive an hour ago . They were once again reminded that Davis was just 10 years old, a disciple of a powerful being, and didn't even take him a minute to take down the two emperors who were part of the continent's strongest seven .
nShirley laughed as she left,
"Next time I see, you might even be stronger than me, hehe .
"
n
"No . . . that . . .
" Ellia tried to deny it, but no words came out of her mouth as she clenched her fists .
nDavis smiled . He could see that her resolve to get stronger didn't let her degrade herself .
nHe turned his face and saw Shirley's back . He felt a little sad that he didn't get to see her face .
nSuddenly, he noticed something and turned aside, only to see Evelynn running away .
nHe laughed and shook his head, 'It's not like I'm going to eat her, she must've been so embarrassed to be running away from me . '
n
"Don't you need to follow her?
" Ellia asked as she pointed at the escaping Evelynn .
n
"Leave it, there's no need to be forceful . Let it be .
" Davis replied, his heart was full of satisfaction right now .
n
"Aren't you afraid that someone will steal her away from you?
" Ellia asked teasingly .
n
"Ohh . . . Then they will be courting death!
" Davis replied with a slight grin, but his face turned weird,
"When did you learn to tease? Who taught you that?
"
n
"From a certain person who always bullies me,
" Ellia replied with a proud grin on her face . Now that she felt true to be his friend, she felt that she could now tease him as well .
nDavis chuckled and shouted a moment later as he laughed,
"Let's get on with the final competition!
"
